[Bug 885730] [NEW] keyboard layout indicator reacts incorrectly

 

Public bug reported:

Hi there,

  there are few bug reports similar to this one but from their
description I feel like this is a little different.

  I use three different keyboard layouts, switching between them with
shortcut and having "Allow different layouts for individual windows"
option enabled. In this configuration layout switch should be processed
when shortcut is triggered or when I switch to another window. Moreover
"to switch layout" means two things. Firstly it means to switch keyboard
mappings themself and secondly to change what layout indicator shows.

  The problem itself: mappings which is used is often not the same as
indicator shows. I experimented a little to find out what is wrong and
now I see that the mistake is in processing switch-window event which
always changes mappings used but doesn't refresh what indicator is
showing...

  Sometimes it's quite annoying as nearly all bugs reported here :) This
is my first bug report ever so correct me or reguest mroe info if I have
fogotten something.
